The crazy idea CHARGED OFF-EQUATORIAL TORI Polish donut Czech double donut Czech triple donut • test particles approximation (very low densities) • kinetic theory (low densities) • MHD (high densitites)
Basic equations • basic GRMHD equations • our toy model - test non-conductive charged fluid • - no selfconsistence (for now) • - axial symmetry and azimuthal motion
Pressure equations – general case • pressure equations • integrability condition integrable integrable non-integrable
Pressure equations in RN spacetime • Geometry • Electric field • Pressure equations
Equation of state – density equations • Equation of state • Angular momentum distribution • Charge distribution • Density equation • Boundary conditions
Pressure and density profiles Positively charged torus
Correction function and charge density Positively charged torus
Pressure and density profiles Negatively charged torus
Correction function and charge density Negatively charged torus
Mass and charge of tori • Total charge • Total mass
Summary • We have built a GR toy model of charged thick dielectric torus rotating in gravitational and electromagnetic fields • We have tested it and presented it on the background of charged Reissner-Nordström black hole, considering physically relevant (astrophysically unsuitable) parameters of the fluid • We are going to test it in more astrophysically relevant cases (dipole magnetic field, reasonable parameters of the fluid, …) • We are going to include the electrostatic correction interaction into the equation of state • We are going to construct the off-equatorial charged tori (for now, realizing it in the Newtonian way – talk by Petr Slaný) • Kovář, Slaný, Stuchlík, Karas, Cremaschini, Miller, 2011, Physical Review D
